admin login keeps cycling every 2-3 seconds

I have just upgraded to 6.10.5 and now I can't get into the admin page.

I can log in as usual but after 2-3 seconds I am asked to log in again. This keeps cycling.

I have cleared the browser caches, used Firefox and Microsoft and Safari browers and the problem exsists on all three.

My ReadyNas is connected to a LAN but I configured both it and my router for the ReadyNas not to have access to the internet.

 

Any suggestions please

    Try internet explorer.  One poster found he could get in using that - but only when he didn't maximize the browser window.

      Thanks for the response.
      I’ve tried Explorer both full and part screen without any luck. I have also reset the OS. With the OS reset to default it works OK until I restore the config and then the same problem occurs. The config has worked for years. It looks like it is accepting the login password but its stuck in a loop.
      I have also changed my router setting to temporarily allow internet access but that hasn’t fixed it either.

        That is interesting.  Do you have ReadyCloud (or other cloud apps) turned on in your original config?
